Obviously im no coach but I found it odd that at one stage we had paea, mika, clinton and taylor on the sidelines with only Watts and Netherton on the field as recognisable forwards (not counting Lovegrove, he's got enough on his plate) This coincided with us losing momentum. Could this have been handled better?

We lost momentum wen Clinton lost that ball sloppy play thought he had a stinker this week and he tuk hodgson if he was causing so many problems defo agree with u with the rotation tho

????? Wtf.

Wasnt on long enough to have a stinker, in fairness his second spell was good.

Clinton was poor today, Paea and Watts made good yards when we getting quick play the balls, Mika went very quiet and I don't know where Netherton was.

Something I thought too at the time.

Paea was on the bench last week so it's as if Sandercock is trying not to overplay certain players which I can understand cos it's a long season but Con Mika was suspended last week so I'm not sure of the reasoning behind him coming off so early.

Maybe I focussed on the ball he gave away to be honest there was to many players tonight that didn't play for full 80

I meant hogson was our best player on the field tonight

Paea and Mika's fitness would be a problem if I was you. Are 10-15 minutes of energy good enough? Especially with only 10 interchanges. Could end up costing you.

I'm sure Mikas played the full 80 for us so his fitness should be fine. Not sure why he took him off. Clinton came on after roughly 20 mins and went off after about 10 mins, not good enough for me.( his time on the pitch)

We've been lacking players like these, in what was a lightweight pack these last couple of years. It's about getting the balance right. I'm glad of 'em - lot to be said for discipline and a good kick chase, but it can be slightly anaemic fare. Tackle busts and offloads - we don't look much better as yet (not consistently at least), but I think we'll definately provide a better spectacle. I'd rather win boring, mind.

Am sure that this has taught sandercock a harsh lesson in rotation and will look into it deeply still no excuse for the pathetic tackling at times.
